Who Should I Start? Raheem Mostert or Devin Singletary

Friday, October 10, 7:33 PM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Raheem Mostert struggled to make an impact in his change-of-pace role during Week 5, totaling just 22 yards on a season-high seven touches. While the 33-year-old veteran still flashes big-play ability--highlighted by a 37-yard run against the Bears earlier this year--his current workload leaves him well outside fantasy relevance. Mostert should be viewed strictly as a handcuff to rookie standout Ashton Jeanty, who has firmly established himself as the lead back. Still, with Dylan Laube and Zamir White buried on the depth chart, Mostert remains the clear next man up if Jeanty were to miss time. For now, he's best left on the waiver wire outside of deeper leagues or as insurance for Jeanty managers looking to protect one of fantasy's rising assets.

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary was expected to have an increased role this weekend with Cam Skattebo (ankle) sidelined for the rest of the season. Singletary was expected to play a backup role to Tyrone Tracy Jr. in the backfield. However, Singletary ended up seeing the most carries in the backfield this past weekend. Singletary rushed eight times for 43 yards, while hauling in two receptions for eight yards in the loss to the San Francisco 49ers. His 5.3 yards per carry should help Singletary earn a bigger role in the backfield going forward. It's tough to call Singletary a viable streaming choice, but he's someone to watch heading into the Week 10 matchup against the Chicago Bears.
